How are the following organizations wrt to employer prestige wrt to Machine Learning. Please rank. Microsoft, Target, cruise, yahoo, qualcomm, cisco, splunk, google, Bloomberg, 3M, jp morgan, walmart, ebay #tech #microsoft #google #target #cruise # ebay #cisco
Who cares about prestige!? Also, Cruise is dead.
Why do you say so? I see cruise folks with tc > $500k, I thought cruise pays well and is doing well as a company, you think with the recent California ban they are a goner ?
They just laid off a massive amount of people, yes, i think theyre screwed.
I thought Bloomberg cruise walmart jp morgan qualcomm are better reputed in machine learning than cisco.
None of these names stand out head and shoulders above the rest. Cisco definitely doesn’t lol, and I say this as a former employee.
Cruise is so screwed
Depends on what type of role. Are you a research scientist building a foundational model or building a app with Chatgpt/gemini/-anthropic etc model.
Ml engineering.
Cruise ML talent is super strong, the kind of folks you couldn’t even meet if you worked in a place other than FAANG. I would rank: Google Brain Cruise AI generic Google Microsoft Research generic Microsoft The others are hardly worth mentioning. I would definitely argue there’s a lot of companies between Microsoft and Walmart/Target (let’s say Salesforce, eBay, Samsung, etc). The fact that Cruise is doing poorly as a business is completely unrelated to the caliber of the talent inside the company (just to be clear, leadership and management aren’t that good, I am specifically talking about ICs doing ML) Source: I worked in two FAANG before Cruise.
+1
Cisco above any but 3M and eBay is actually wild lol
Whats it means by wild.
